    Spider crab
    Jim S.

    Amazing space by the water with great views! Service was spot on and friendly! Food was fresh and with very generous portions! Traditional Portuguese seafood and our server was kind enough to let us know we were ordering too much and she was right. The seafood with rice dish is enough to feed 3-4 people and was delicious!

    Great wine
    Steve L.

    Amazing views! Great staff. Really tasty food. We came here for a fancy dinner and it was a great choice. With epic views of the coast line and a fantastic patio. The staff was very helpful and really attentive to our needs. The food was great! But make sure you know what you are getting / the fish can be very salty. Would absolutely come back!

    Furnas Do Guincho is a wonderful seafood restaurant right on the water facing the Atlantic. The view is phenomenal. The only thing better than the view is the amazingly fresh seafood. Simply prepared, some of the very best seafood anywhere. The service is excellent.

    Nice restaurant overlooking the ocean. Service was great as they are knowledgeable and make solid recommendations. Food was authentic and delicious. Prices were a bit high but not crazy. You won't go wrong eating here...

    Bacalao a La vizcaina, with delicious steamed vegetables. They have every imaginable fish dish on the menu, and the quality is outstanding.

    Absolutely wonderful spot for authentic Portuguese seafood meal. The server (Bernardo) was extremely accommodating to our special requests, which was made possible because of the great attitude and culture of the restaurant, his dedication to service, and a willing chef. Wonderful ocean views and very fair prices. We enjoyed a pitcher of white sangria, seafood soup, and Bacalao a La Vizcaina (which was not on the menu but we described it and the chef made it to perfection). This was definitely worth a cab drive for wonderful seafood.

    Noodles with Grouper and shrimps

    We did a quick getaway to Cascais for Memorial Day Weekend. This restaurant came highly recommended to us by a friend. Since it was in our neighborhood (lucky us!) we decided to check it out. Wow, the food here was delicious! The view was amazing! The stuffed crab (my mouth watering just reminiscing) was so flavorful! The Grouper was flaky and light. Fresh seafood only needs a little salt, pepper and olive oil to bring out the flavor. We really stuffed ourselves and wish we had taken it easy because the desserts looked really good too! We were too full and just could not. Will save it for our next visit!

    Oysters

    Went here for a business dinner. The meal started with cold cooked shrimps, which were fresh and nice to start. Then went to the oysters and clams. Both were awesomely fresh and flavorful. Went to the salt covered fish, it was amazing, so soft and tender. Great place to come.

    Seafood for two
    Rob B.

    Wow, wow and wow! Just had dinner there and it was awesome. A group of us ate there. We sat down and were given bread and a dozen or so shrimp We also split the seafood for two meal which included lobster, shrimp, clams, muscles.At the end of dinner we tried the desserts and the cheesecake was out this world.

    View from seaside table.
    Robin D.

    Amazing view and extremely delicious fish meal. We had the whole fish baked in seasalt. It can to the table flaming and the waiter did a tableside opening of the salt crust, removal of skin, bones and playing in under 3 minutes. The sea bass was perfectly cooked, and the simple olive oil, garlic and herbs sauce enhanced the flavor even more. Every dish was amazing. Will definitely go back when in Portugal next trip.

    Delicious cheese as an apatizer.
    Fabian D.

    We didn't make a reservation but we were lucky. You can sit outside of half inside. It can be a little cold if you sit outside. But here you have a beautiful view at the see and the sun set. Most of the staff is very friendly and speaks English or French. The restaurant is a bit expensive but the food is very good. Choose the goat cheese as an appetiser with bread. Really tasteful. A bottle of house wine costs only €10 and is really nice. I choose for the Lobster Cream. Really delicious. The carpachio was delicious as well. The chefs Gambas was not very special: Gambas with mushroom sauce and rice. The cooked bread with Lobster was ok, but you must like bread. The main course came already when we didn't finished the entrée. That's not how it must go.

This is the only restaurant in Portugal that asked for a tip. Afterwards I realized they ripped me off because VAT was included in my meal price. Don't fall for the tip is not included, it might be because I am American. My server was on the grumpy side and never once smiled, but I think that is his personality, he smiled for no one. Food: I ordered the pasta with chile, calamari, and shrimp. It was a unique pasta with garlic and tiny amounts of ginger, that played very well and there was like 2 chile rings and then calamari and shrimp. The pasta was cooked perfectly and right amount of sauce that just played well together. The calamari was cooked to perfection as was the shrimp but a few were not cleaned properly but everything tasted good. The chile did have a tiny bite so somebody might think this is spicy but was not for me, finally something with flavor. I did not eat all the pasta because then I ordered the octopus. The octopus was not cleaned properly but the texture was spot on and the taste was great, I added some of my own hot sauce on the side to give it some kick. Odd to have a boiled egg with the octopus, good taste but the green ring indicates the egg was overcooked. Everything was temperature hot and served fairly quickly. WiFi available. I should have just ordered the pasta because that was fantastic! The octopus was okay but took some work to clean. The pasta gives this place a 5. Service and tip with VAT already included would drop to 2. The octopus is 3 stars. But the pasta was the best meal thus far in Portugal.

    Very nice restaurant recommended by our tour guide so I feel it may be a bit touristy. The food is…read moregood but a little pricy. Service was good but it was the only restaurant I was asked if I want to leave an additional tip, hence place for tourist. There's no need to leave a tip in Europe.

I was so happy…read moreto see that Yelp had a presence in Portugal so while planning the trip I started book marking all the cool exciting places I wanted to check out ! Sooo I was so happy to find Restaurante Mar Do Inferno! It had gorgeous views of the Atlantic Ocean and the best seafood ! We made our reservation online before leaving California. It was easy and had an English and Portuguese option. We arrived and once we got there we were greeted warmly and seated quickly . There were all these fresh seafood options that you could pick from in live tanks ! Service was top tier !! Our waiter was funny and very entertaining! He warmed up even more as the evening progressed! We had the best view of the sea and ambiance was lovely ! We ordered the seafood platter - langoustines, lobster, prawns, sea bream, potatoes in a garlic butter sauce !! Everything was SO FRESH!! So delicious !!! Great wine selection especially European wines and cocktails too !! Hubby loved it and we definitely will come back next time we are in Portugal!!

Unfortunately, it ended up being the most disappointing--and most expensive--meal we've had during our month in Portugal. The experience got off to a poor start. The hostess wasn't welcoming, and when I politely asked if we could sit closer to the window, I was told those tables had been reserved weeks in advance. We had also made a reservation for our anniversary, so that was disappointing. We were seated behind a pillar instead. Throughout the evening, not a single member of the waitstaff smiled. They all looked unhappy to be there, which created a surprisingly cold atmosphere. None of the staff ever came by to ask how our meal was, and no one acknowledged our anniversary. The restaurant itself wasn't nearly as elegant or luxurious as its reputation suggests. Aside from the lobster tank, the décor and atmosphere felt rather ordinary. To make matters worse, our view overlooked a wire fence and a parking area instead of the beautiful ocean setting we had expected. There were also several odd service issues. I ordered a gin martini. They said they were out of green olives, so I requested a lemon twist instead. The drink arrived with black olives and a lemon twist, which was confusing. As for the food, the complimentary bread with the crab pâté was excellent and easily the highlight of the meal. Unfortunately, everything after that was underwhelming. The sea bass was bland and forgettable, and the vegetables were overcooked to the point of being mushy. What made the evening especially disappointing is that every other restaurant we've visited in Cascais has been wonderful. Friendly, smiling staff checked on us, made us feel welcome, and served memorable meals--often at much lower prices. Given Mar do Inferno's reputation and premium prices, we expected an exceptional dining experience. Instead, we left wondering how it has earned such glowing reviews. I genuinely hope management takes a close look at the service, atmosphere, and food quality, because right now the restaurant simply doesn't live up to its reputation.

    First off, you need to make a reservation. The restaurant is small and very popular. I was able to…read moremake a reservation for the same day though, because luckily Portugal had a World Cup match that night. We sat inside the cantina side. Our server was adorable and bubbly with a great sense of humor. She did get really busy though toward the end of our meal and it was a challenge to flag her down for our check. With that said, she provided exceptional service earlier. This is the kind of place you want to go to with others who love tasting a variety of dishes. I went with my family who is not into that concept, and so I had to choose just one dish that I would not be sharing, as no one else wanted to share theirs either. Some of the dishes were quite small, but mine was not! I ordered the octopus which was cooked to perfection and had a mix of potatoes and greens underneath. Would definitely order this again! It was one of the best octopus dishes I've ever had. The one thing we did share was the croquettes. They were delightful, but kind of expensive as they were 1.70Euros each and were literally one bite, but a very flavorful bite at that. I also had a few glasses of their summer sangria which I rather enjoyed. I would return here when in Cascais again, but maybe with a different group of people so that we can treat it as tapas as it should be instead of individual dishes. There's so much more I want to try from their menu!

    My wife and I did not have a reservation but were able to get seated inside (small inside area but…read moreit was chill). We split 3 dishes and definitely couldn't do a 4th as the portions were perfect to share. Dishes we ordered were the octopus with Migas, the wild crispy shrimps and the Ze Povinho which is black pork cheeks slow cooked in red wine. The octopus was incredibly tender and served over potatoes that had a lot of flavor. The shrimps were 4 large (prawns not sure why they were called shrimo?) were fried but nice and juicy. The puree of the avocado and mango with the prawns was a winning combo! We were both pretty full but ate every bit of the pork beef cheeks which was served with au gratin potato that had a hint of dill in it which I was surprised I like as I'm not a huge dill fan.. Once we got to this spot and this are in general we knew it was the place to be at. Monday evening and packed!
